“Will do.”

Gu Shaoting trusted that Mr. Zhang would do a good job. After hearing that everything had been properly arranged for Charlene, he felt that he had done good by Mr. John and went back to his task at hand.

He was packing at home with Shu Pan for their move to Qiyuan.

Qiyuan already had everything. All they needed to do was to pack a few important belongings and move in. He didn’t expect his wife to deem almost everything important.

When they were done packing, there were numerous big and small cartons of things to be moved. He would need to hire a mover.

“Wifey, we really don’t have to go through so much trouble. We’ll just buy whatever we need.” Gu Shaoting didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

“Don’t waste what’s still usable. These things will just collect dust if we leave them here.” Shu Pan said matter-of-factly.

Joy was elated when she heard her father tell her about the big garden with a swing she could play in and keep a puppy.

She wished that they would move in right away.

…

After Charlene arrived at her hotel room and put down her bags, she looked at her phone and figured that Mr. Zhang had probably updated her Brother Gu that he had picked her up from the airport.

Theoretically, her Brother Gu would call her to check if she was settling in alright.

But her phone never rang.

She sat on the bed, staring at her phone. Her lips were mashed together in a hard line and her face looked depressed.

What was going on? Did Brother Gu not care about her at all? Did he think that she was here to cause him trouble?

She squeezed her phone as she made up her mind to call Gu Shaoting.

Her call was picked up after a long time.

“Hello, who is this, please?” Gu Shaoting’s deep and magnetic voice rang out over the phone. His voice sounded like a tantalizing blend of silk and honey that sent shivers down her spine with each word.

Charlene was so stunned that she couldn’t speak.

“Hello?” Gu Shaoting said again over the phone.

Charlene finally snapped out of her daze and replied quickly, “Brother Gu, it’s Charlene. I’ve arrived.”

“That’s good. Have a good rest. I’ll treat you to a meal tomorrow.” Gu Shaoting said because he was busy and figured that Charlene was tired after such a long flight.

That was why he didn’t offer to buy her a welcome dinner right away.

“Alright then.” Charlene’s voice was filled with disappointment. She wasn’t tired because she had slept for a long time during her flight. She had travelled the world and was used to flying around.

But since Gu Shaoting responded that way, she didn’t press on.

It was still better for a girl to act more reserved. She had plenty of opportunities ahead and letting this one go was no big deal.

After hanging up the phone, Charlene opened her suitcase and hung up the clothes that she had specially selected for her stint here. What she brought with her was just part of her wardrobe. The clothes that she had shipped herself had yet to arrive.

She was worried about her unfamiliarity with this place that she didn’t know where to shop, so she brought a lot of clothes.

A woman must dress to impress her love interest.

She was starting work tomorrow. What should she wear to impress her Brother Gu?

She must knock his socks off.

She browsed and browsed until she decided on an above the knee pencil skirt, paired with a white silk blouse. It was a very professional ensemble.

The professional ensemble was often the hardest to carry off but it accentuated her curves.

The skirt she picked was pink and her top was white. As the blouse was made of silk, it had a semi- translucent quality and made her look very alluring.

Charlene smiled in satisfaction. She was young, beautiful, and smart. She was confident that she could win Brother Gu over.

Didn’t people say that it was much easier for a woman to pursue a man?

If Gu Shaoting didn’t want to pursue her, she could always be the pursuer.

She had always worked hard to get what she wanted. She believed that people had their destiny in their own hands.

“Go, Charlene, go!” She looked at herself in the mirror and secretly cheered herself on.
